Tried gqrx on bare metal and a vm both segfault, so backup early adopters.

anyone else tried it with no problems?

gdb output.

Hi Lee,

Thanks for the info. Is this with the packages from the Ubuntu repository?

Ok, I will take a look at later but probably not before November.

Just for fun, could you try this experimental AppImage and see if it works:
https://bintray.com/probono/AppImages/Gqrx/2.5.3.glibc2.17#files

Just download, chmod +x ... then run.
It was built on 14.04 but works also on 16.04. I will try to build one
with gqrx 2.6 later, or you can try it yourself if you are interested:
http://discourse.appimage.org/t/experimental-gqrx-appimage/76

The drawback of the AppImage is that it does not setup the udev rules
for you, so that part has to be done manually for now.
